FinTech Action Labs, a business accelerator programme provided by law firm Ashurst, has announced it is collaborating with six new firms – including Lloyds Banking Group – to bolster the expertise provided to fledgling FinTechs in the third iteration of its programme.
Expertise from new partners Lloyds Bank; Aon; BDO; Lumi, the design partner for product-led start-ups; FinTech Circle, the platform for FinTech entrepreneurs; and TechPassport, the FinTech marketplace, will offer participant companies opportunities throughout the three-day programme to get answers to their specific legal questions, as well as to develop connections to a wide array of legal and business experts and thought leaders operating in the FinTech space, Ashurst said.
FinTech Legal Labs and the new industry partners will also guide programme participants in ensuring they have the right legal, technology and governance infrastructure in place to address future challenges.
Tara Waters, global co-head of Fintech Legal Labs, commented: "We are really pleased to be partnering with such an innovative group of industry leaders who are as committed as we are to supporting the Fintech ecosystem.”
She continued: “Our new partners will help us to broaden the programme's relevance for up-and-coming FinTechs as they seek to navigate the complex and evolving industry.”
